Kelvinside Academy is an independent school in Glasgow, Scotland, founded in 1878. We educate around 600 pupils aged 3 - 18 years.

Kelvinside Academy may have first opened its doors in 1878 and be housed in a Grade A listed building in Glasgow’s West End, but there’s much more going on inside the walls of the school than meets the eye.

We’re just as shocked as Paulette! 💖

Omigod you guys 😱 KA’s Legally Blonde The Musical 2026 is officially a SELL OUT! Every performance is packed with excited family, friends and staff, all eager to see the show everyone’s been talking about.

Night 1 was a huge success, with audiences laughing, gasping and cheering for our incredible cast. Our young people showcased their talent brilliantly, but what shone through most was the genuine love and support they have for one another. The countless hours spent rehearsing have created bonds that will last a lifetime, regardless of year group.

They lifted each other up, celebrated each other, and their passion radiated from the stage. It was clear that every single performer loved being up on that stage.

Tonight, we do it all again with the Blue Cast - just as fabulous and just as PINK! ✨

Success for KA Swimmers! 🔥

KA swimmers produced some great results at the recent Scottish School Championships at Aberdeen Aquatic Centre.

Fantastic effort with silver 🥈 for Lula M (15/16 yrs) 400IM & 5th in 200 Fly.

Andrew P (15/16 yrs) fought off illness to grab 6th in 400 free and 12th in 200 free as well as showing true grit to go on to claim bronze in the 5k at the Midlands districts open water in Dundee.

Special mention to Leo L (13/14) competing in his first Scottish Championships achieving 6th in 200IM and 13th in 200 breast.

Andrew and Lula also teamed up with Abbie M and Cole M from Glasgow School of Sport to claim 🥉🥉 Bronze in both Freestyle & Medley Relays – brilliant teamwork!

Our KA swimmers continue to do us proud with incredible commitment to their training and performance. Well done team.
